Gloria Allred and Lisa Bloom re: WeinergateThe pair shared their thoughts on Anthony Weiner's sexting and whether it constitutes cheating. Gloria said she believes Weiner's case "goes beyond texting" and is more about the lies, adding, "It matters if you're misleading the public through the press. It's not just the sex, it's the cover up." Lisa fired back, "It's nobody's business to ask a question, 'Did you send a racy text?' to an adult. If someone asked me that question, I'd probably lie too. Should I not run for office?" Allred interrupted, "I taught you always tell the truth!" In addition to her work as an attorney, Bloom is a TV legal analyst and has a new book out called "Think," which calls on women to reclaim their minds from a 24/7 tabloid culture. "If you know more about reality shows than about reality, your life is out of balance," Lisa explained. Watch to find out other tips Bloom gives on how to stay smart in a dumbed-down world!

You think Romney should start to give out winky poos like Palin? Not his style. He's more of a sexting type guy.  I doubt it. He is an ex-consultant and banker. |

Updated: Fri., Jun. 17, 2011, 9:23 AM So long Weiner, what a 'sorry' excuse By MICHAEL GOODWIN Last Updated: 9:23 AM, June 17, 2011 Posted: 2:11 AM, June 17, 2011 Hold the tears and sympathy. Anthony Weiner is only sorry he got caught. Now we know why he found it so easy to lie to the cameras and his wife for most of the last three weeks. He's still lying to himself about the depths of his depravity. A visitor from Mars easily could have mistaken yesterday's resignation speech as a jaunty moment of triumph. To watch him dance around his sensational flameout, you'd think Weiner reached his goal of being mayor. The only thing missing was the confetti and the beaming wife -- and the full and honest truth. VOTE: WHICH WEINER POST PAGE 1 IS YOUR FAVORITE? WEINER FINALLY YANKS HIMSELF PEYSER: EVEN FRIENDS WON'T TOUCH THIS DING-DONG PHOTOS: WEINER AND HIS WOMEN He's not being drummed out of Congress in complete disgrace, with even a president from his own party helping to push. He's merely moving on so he can "continue to heal." He didn't do anything scandalously wrong that made him a pariah among his colleagues. He just made "personal mistakes" and created "distractions." He didn't betray his oath of office and the people who hired him. He's only looking for "other ways to contribute my talents." I'd say he's done enough already. Good riddance. WEINER'S SENSE OF HUMA RETURNS ON LI GETAWAY STAFF SAW REAL 'WHOPPER' WEINER'S RISE AND FALL EDITORIAL: GRACELESS TO THE END PODHORETZ: TWITTER = ZERO TOLERANCE We now have three distinct images of Weiner's final days. First was the initial series of TV interviews where he patiently and repeatedly lied about every aspect of Weinergate. Then came the blubbering confession where he defiantly insisted he would not resign. And now we have the resignation with hints of a planned comeback. What those events share is that Weiner remained strikingly unsympathetic, unlikable and untrustworthy throughout. It's easy to see why nobody in Congress would rise to his defense. He is the kind of man about whom it is said that even his friends don't like him. VIDEOS: WEINER RESIGNS WEINER'S PRESS CONFERENCE WEINER SHOPS WITH WIFE He is dishonorable by every definition, yet refuses to accept that truth in his own head. Weiner is a weasel even to himself. Unfortunately, he is in many ways the consummate modern politician. A strident, arrogant partisan, he was all about scoring political points to advance his career. His is the kind of ruthless ambition that gives ambition a bad name. Did he ever believe in anything other than his own career? If so, it died long ago, suffocated by the gamesmanship of his politics and the raw pathology revealed by his secret life on the Internet. Tellingly, the sins of his flesh were not about a passion for someone else's, but about a twisted exhibitionism that was more tawdry and less understandable. His home, office and pets were mere backdrops for his photo shoots. Being a member of the United States Congress was a convenient pickup line as he sought the virtual adoration of strangers. It was a sex scandal that apparently involved no sex. The squirmy strangeness of his conduct precludes the quick return to public life he seems to have in mind. He obviously desires to minimize the depths of his affliction so he can recapture some semblance of the power and status he has destroyed. That's just another fantasy, and a sure sign he hasn't hit bottom yet. But at least his visits to crazy land will be on his own time and won't bring any more shame to America.

Weiner wrote Oblamacare??? I did not know that.... and now they threw him under the bus... interesting... Well, I'd say most of the salient ideas of ObamaCare were actually already written and sitting in a dustry drawer someplace waiting for the moment Democrats could foist it upon us, but yes- Weiner gets blame- er, um...credit- for writing the bill. |

I heard that conservatives are so jealous of Weiner's package and its size that many have been secretly wishing that Weiner be sent to Gitmo and waterboarded. Any truth to that? Really??? I didn't find him impressive at all.... |

Barney Frank
Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., was reprimanded by the House in 1989 for using his influence on behalf of male prostitute Stephen Gobie. Frank admitted paying Gobie for sex, hiring him with his own money as an aide and writing a letter on his behalf. Frank faced constituents at a meeting until they ran out of questions, acknowledging, "I did not handle the pressures of having a public life, of being a closeted gay man, nearly as well as I should have." He has won re-election ever since.
Bill Clinton
President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, gave evasive and misleading testimony under oath and publicly denied having sexual relations with former intern Monica Lewinsky, only to be forced into a humiliating reversal. He was impeached by the House and then acquitted in a 1999 Senate trial.
Eliot Spitzer
New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, a Democrat, addresses reporters with his wife, Silda Wall Spitzer, at his office in New York, apologizing for a "private matter" but making no reference to a March 10, 2008, New York Times report linking him to a prostitution ring. Spitzer resigned later that week.
John Edwards
In this image taken from video and released by ABC News, Bob Woodruff interviews John Edwards Friday, Aug. 8, 2008 in Chapel Hill, N.C. The former North Carolina senator, who was the Democratic vice presidential nominee in 2004, confessed to ABC News that he had lied repeatedly about the affair with 42-year-old Rielle Hunter.
At the time, he denied fathering a baby with Hunter, but on Jan. 21, 2009, he released a statement exclusively to NBC News admitting that was was indeed the father of Francis Quinn Hunter.

I didn't find him impressive at all.... You are not a conservative male. Conservative males have massive package envy. Why do you think they hate Obama so much. You know what they say about African American package size? |

“Anthony Weiner’s resignation from Congress may have put an end to the ‘distractions’ and ‘embarrassments’ that prevented him from getting back to work, but for American taxpayers, the scandal may have only just begun,” NTU Executive Vice President Pete Sepp said Friday in a statement. Reeling from a virtual-sex scandal and pressured by fellow Democrats to resign, Weiner announced Thursday that he'll do just that. The New York Democrat is in his seventh term representing Brooklyn and Queens, but also worked as a staffer to then-Rep. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) between 1985 and 1991. Under federal pension rules, Weiner could begin drawing down reduced benefits 10 years from now, when he turns 56. Under that scenario, he could collect up to $32,357 annually, totaling $1.12 million over his lifetime, NTU estimates. If he opts to take the full pension — which kicks in at age 62 — he could receive $46,224 each year, totaling $1.28 million over his lifetime, NTU found. Weiner will not qualify for lifetime healthcare benefits through the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan, NTU reported, because lawmakers must currently be receiving a pension to do so. Weiner may continue to receive health benefits through the federal program at his own expense for up to 18 months. Source: thehill.com/homenews/house/167081-weiner-eligible-for-sizable-pensionThe |

There is only one way to settle this...all the conservative on this board need to post their pecker pictures so we can compare them to Weiner...except the old guys...no one wants to see an old pecker  |
